Answer:
1 1/2 teaspoon of salt is required
Step-by-step explanation:
The recipe requires 3/4 cup of flour and Nick wants to make the recipe using 1 cup of flour.
The recipe requires 1 1/8 teaspoon of salt and Nick wants to know how much salt he heeds.
Consider short description:
3/4 cup of flour - 1 cup of flour,
1 1/8 teaspoon of salt - x teaspoon of salt.
Mathematically, you can wrte a proportion:
<u>3/4 </u> = 1 / x
<u>1 1/8 </u>
Then
3/4 * x = 1 x 1 1/8,
3x/4 = 9/8,
3x x 8 = 4 x 9,
24x = 36,
x = 36/24 = 3/2 = 1 1/2
56/4 divided by 2 » (56/4) ÷ 2 » 14 ÷ 2 = 7
